Danut,

Hello, I just checked with Western Union and I think I may be screwed. They said I have to contact the original person in Romania, Danut Mynocatee, or wait 30 days for the money to be refunded to me. Is there anyway you can change your name? Or maybe get a fake ID card in that name? I know you Romanians are pretty good at making stuff up. Let me know. Thanks for you help.

hahaha, this thread is just too funny

This thread is WAY too funny!
Hey if anyone ever does figure out where this dirtbag is and if they can pinpoint a location in the Jacksonville Florida area LMK! I live in Orange Park which is a suburb of jacksonville.
Scrap Sillicon also lives here, we could go pay him a visit in person!
That would be SWEET!

I said I wanted Western Union. If I wanted FedEx, I would have said FedEx. What part don't you understand?

I SAID I WAS GOING TO PAY FOR THE WESTERN UNION FEE.

Go to the Western Union and send this money without $100 for the fee, or we don't have a deal.

Thank you for understanding,
Danut


He most liekly does live in romania, but that address is most likely not his. Any packages sent to said address will not be received by him. I can garauntee this. Textbook romanian scam. I'll sign him up for a few spams.

Check out this site: IP Trace

And type in the ORIGINATING IP: 81.196.102.38

Interesting to see what comes up.

Anyways, I'm sure there are more resourceful people here, so I'll let them do THEIR sleuthing.

hey, that's a really neat website! I think I'll bookmark that

I don't think this was mentioned (and apologies if it was), but you put his email into an ebay search you get:

Vonraven(118)

If you're really feeling stalkerish, you can look at all the items he buys.

edit: And it looks like this guy may be in the US, because I think some of the auctions he buys are "US shipping only" auctions...

edit2: what someone COULD do, is email one of the people he's bought from and find out his address. Although, the seller may not be willing to devulge...

But if you read the first post of this thread, you'll see that vonraven's account was hijacked by this guy.

Do we have anyone doing anything creative yet with his IP? I'm doing some investigating myself to see what i can come up with. Lets put our heads together on this, some 'ethical' hacking is in order.

hahahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, check out the email he sent me:

Hello,

I guess I could ask a friend of mine to make me a fake ID. For the I
will need another $100.

Can you make that kind of money and send it to me at the folowing
address?:

- name: Adrian Poponelu;
- address: Palatul Victoria, Bucuresti, BU 70000;
- country: Romania.

That is the name and address of a friend of mine. He said he would help
me with this for $50. I do this because if you send it to me, the
Police will become suspicious and they would look for me. We do not want
that to happen, now, do we?

Please tell me if you could send me the $100.

Thank you very much,
Danut

P.S.: I would like to have your address now, so I can send you the
laptop.

if ebay knows that an account was hijacked, do they tell law enforcement or go about with their own investigation?

Maybe it's time to e-mail Police in Bucharest and have them do a bust. You have plenty of info here.

logging his Ip may be fruitless. In romania, its very likely he uses a computer at a cybercafe or the library.
Hamburgerpimp! You got an address! woot!

I look at the world realize how many morons and asshole there are. Then I come to ATOT and realize why we have them. Thanks guy. I could look into the IP situation and see if I can pin point the source.

It would help if everyone corrensponding with him would post the headers for the emails they're receiving. There might be differnet info in each header that might help.

Does the following help?

IP address: 81.196.102.38
No host name is associated with this IP address or no reverse lookup is configured.
